remark that just now is the time for
some one to make money there by

met friend Of Mary Anderson's at 8
little luncheon up town the other day, and
he was telling me curious story told
her lately by the fair actress. The man
said that Miss Anderson told him the
story when she was last here, and assured
him Of its absolute truth with utmost
earnestness. Il b irregular old fashioned
and bona iide ghost story, and has the in
terest Of having occurred az famous
house ii England, KnebWorth castle, the
home Of BulWer LyttQn and hip SON, the
countess Of Knebworth took q great fancy
to the beautiful and entirely proper young
Kentuckian, and had her down to visit
her in the country st her. grand and HIS
tOric residence. The night before the visit
came to conclusion there was some talk
in the countess boudoir, over d o'clock
teas, of the ghostly legends connected
with the historic houses OF England ssd
The earl Of Knebworths inherits good
deal Of his fathers taste for the super
natural and Is very learned in spookOfOgE
After relating thrilling and hair lifting
tales Of many of the old places he had
visited he confessed to Miss Anderson
that In KnebwOrth also there was q
haunted chamber that had never been oc-
cupied at night for half hundred years.
Hiss Anderson was too wise to let her one
and only chance for meeting real and
aristocratic family ssharnt'' escape her,
and begged to be allowed to sleep for her
last night In that long unused room. The
earl and countess tried to persuade her
out Of it, but she persisted, and finally,
on the condition that her maid should
sleep upon q lounge in the room with her,
they yielded. The serving woman was
not told the reason for the change Of
apartments other than Miss Anderson had
taken fancy to sleep there.
Very late in the night, but at what hour
she could not definitely say, Miss Ander-
son was awakened suddenly by feeling
Of oppression and, struggling to sit up,
felt upon her chest what seemed to be the
weight Of . thousand pounds, so helpless
was she to move or cry out Finally she
managed to gasp out the name OF her
maid and from the lounge where she slept
heard d smothered and gurgling cry.

her bedside in panic of fear, explaining
that Miss Anderson's cry had awakened
her, but when she endeavored to answer

within as small space as is consistent
with health and comfort. The only pips
That ought to have exercise nd ifb are
boals anu breeding soWs, and the Young
ones that are intended for these purposes
confinement Is against nature, and not
conductive to health; but then obesity is a
form OF disease of degeneration of the sys-

must be agreement between cause and ef-
feet; III addition TO which, it is well TO COM
plete the process in the shortest possible
time. The floors on which fatteniug pips
lie should be dry and clean, and the stves
should be warm, though well ventilated
we think pigs are better without straw or
other inter TO lie ON, particularly if they lie
on boards. They always keep q clean cor
ner to lie IN when they have no litter. and

close together, and are dry, clean. ana
comfortable, keeping each other warm. but
when they have litter they are kept clean

supply of It. he atmosphere of the place
Is certainly sWeeter without the litter, for
when straw becomes wet slow ferment
sets IN and nauseous odOrs are evolved: in
winter the litter may be useful TO help in
keeping the pigs warm, but III summer
they are better without it, and in any case
IL only keeps warm the side they happen to
lie on, which is always warm when the
spot they lie on IS dry and clean. Fatten-
ing pigs grow all the faster if they arc

learn to like it. II his plan keeps the skin
clean aud lis pores open and lice cannot
prosper. Some persons recommend that
they should be well goOmed with brush
